Christian Gero

After graduating from Northwestern University, I started my professional career with the GRAMMY award winning, independent record label Munck Music, out of Chicago. Eventually working my way to General Manager of the company, I began to understand what entrepreneurial traits a leader must possess in order to continue the success of a small business. Armed with this knowledge, I decided to give it a shot myself in 2016 as the Founding Managing Director of BlackBox Technical Systems Integrators. This integrated audio-visual firm was founded on a customer-centered approach to technology that drove immediate profitability of the company. As an Enterprise Development Fellow, I hope to use my professional experience as a foundation to build an “intrapreneurial” drive for my work as I pursue a career in technology product management.
